 If we add in Canadian sales then PS2 was probably more than 15% difference and possibly PSP around 15%

 

On the other hand all others are pretty much within 10% 


canada usaullt has 10% of the sales right


 Around that, but Wii and DS are very popular there

Real bad numbers for the Wii - Nintendo did a horrible job on shipping enough Wiis.

By bad, you mean it's the top-selling system, right? Both during the holidays and overall in 2007.

COD4 is a casual/core title, and ioi is tracking it like a hardcore title.

COD4 = 2.5m units on the X360 in just 2 months. No wonder the X360 keeps getting all the software - it's still totally bludgeoning every other system in 3rd party sales by a huge multiplier.

Amazing that the X360 nearly outsold the Wii in December, and posted the largest sales for an MS platform in December, ever.

 Well Nitnendo will just have to up production this year, maybe hit that John Lucas 40 million

 Then why are the numbers you gave the same as the NPD numbers you gave 1.3 for the Wii, which is the same as the NPD, and 1.64 is the same as VGC?

I'm very comfortable with all the hardware data - its all close enough, to mean that following our weekly figures has real meaning.

But I'm really concerned about the software - how could we undertrack CoD for 360 by ... 70%? Its not like its a pack-in, or has multiple versions released? Esp when hardware is so close?

Some other games have explanations, such as multiple skews (hardware included bundles, etc) - but not CoD?
